industry. big oil, 109 years ago today. and now you know the news as fox reports, saturday january 10th, 2010, have a great week 10th, 2010, have a great week everyone! captioned by closed captioning services, inc. >> ladies and gentlemen, >> ladies and gentlemen, governor mike huckabee. >> (applause). good afternoon and welcome. thank you. welcome to huckabee from the fox news studios in new york city. and tonight, the former director of security for the world's most secure airline, israel's el-al will tell us how to stop terrorists from boarding our planes. as millions of americans are out of work, two people who lost their jobs tell us how career changes got them back on their feet and the little rockers will be celebrating elvis presley's 75th birthday that's been this weekend. [applause] i've been infuriated

by tarp and bailouts that mess with our free market by privatizing profits and socializing debts. i watched both political parties facilitate that folly. in the america that i grew up in we didn't have too big to fail, we had the creative destruction of capitalism. we didn't keep weak companies, artificially alive. we let them go so that more dynamic companies with smarter business models and better goods and services could take their place, giving all of us a higher standard of living. we let the market and the consumer decide. we didn't force people to buy he understan understan understands-- edsels, if we had to we could live without chrysler and general motors, in the era i lived in, you got a mortgage because were you qualified not because you had a pulse.

i wonder how america looks to our young people out of college or graduate school and many are forced to take jobs that don't require a college degree let alone a law degree or mba and many of them are up to their eyeballs with private debt while the government saddles them with public debt that will burd den them. we sacrificed for the next generation not stolen from them. instead of generational theft we need generational thrift. some young people are moving back home, delaying marriage and the start of their own families, even once they get their careers back on track, their lifetime earnings are still going to suffer. many will never catch up to where they would have been without the collapse. the america they have experienced is one of less opportunity and fairness than their parents and grandparents had and they see a country where ceo's who are paid about 30 times as much as the average american worker in 1970, are now paid more than 300 times as much. they see a country that had no

net job growth in the last decade. in my lifetime, jobs in every other decade grew between 20 and 30%. they see a country where household net worth fell 4% in the last decade, in my lifetime, household net worth in every other decade grew between 30 and 60%. i worry most that our young people will lose the most precious part of their american inheritance the boundless optimism and confident, that can-do spirit of each generation, whether they built covered wagons to the moon. we don't need more wasteful government boon doggles, we need getting rid of taxes on productivity. a fair tax, consumption tax that doesn't punish work and creativity. our wise our young people scale back expectations in both themselves and their country will become self-fulfilling prophesies of diminished success

and power. well, that's my view and i welcome yours as well. you can e-mail me at mike huckabee.com, go to the fox news feedback section. by the way i do read your mention, i can't respond to all of them. we welcome and truly appreciate them. well, this week, president obama spoke about the measures taken to fix the security blunders that have dominated the headlines the past couple of weeks. but the tonight show's conan o'brien didn't feel so reassured. >> now, i don't know about you, i watched the president's speak. i have to say it didn't make me feel much safer. take a look. >> indeed, over the past year we've taken the fight to al-qaeda and its allies, wherever they plot and tan, be it in afghanistan, pack san, yemen, somalia, and other countries around the world. at home, our intelligence, homeland security and law enforcement agencies have worked-- (applause) >> well, the man who reignited

the security concerns on christmas day, 23-year-old nigerian umar farouk abdulmutallab was indicted this week on six charges related to his alleged attempt to blow up an airplane carrying nearly 300 people. should he be getting a lawyer and a civil trial? or a military trial as an enemy combatant. well, it looks like it's time for me to take the hot seat. two people with very denver political views than mine are going to be asking me the tough questions. turning up the heat former communication advisor for harry reid and house assistant to benny thompson, sara. >> thanks for having me. >> zahra, i think i'll let you go with this. a controversy over whether we should have a civilian trial for the terrorists or a military

tribunal. i'm going to let you take the shot. i think my position is be tried by a military tribunal not lawyered up and lathered up with taxpayer money. what's your thought and challenge me on it. >> if we're talking about procedural, every tribunal military or federal, they all have procedures that have to be followed. in terms of the secrecy, we can't talk about secrecy with this type of trial if we have a policy that's the republicans are certainly pushing for that the health care under c plan should remain open and public and then we have the military tribunal that would operate in secret. so, at some point we have to say, we have to have a consistent policy. if we're going to be open on one particular usual we should be open on all of them. >> the concerns for me, two factors, we want all the information out of these guys before they get a lawyer. once they get a lawyer the lawyer will tell one thing. if you lawyer up, you clam up.

any lawyer is going to tell his client to shut up. we don't want him to shut up. we want him to talk and sing like a canary and i'd rather the military and cia take him and do whatever they need to do and fill his underpants back up with explosives and put him in a field and let the u.s. marine detonate it if they have to give get this guy to talk, i'm being a little facetious about that, but my point being we want him to talk. the other concern is this, if we give him a trial, the problem with that becomes we give him a forum. i'm much more concerned about giving him this platform. is he going to be popular in america now, but across the world the trial will be broadcast as this magnificent platform to spout anti-americanism and that's a concern. it's not that we don't want to give him some civil treatment because we are a country that does that, but i do think that that's our problem and you can jump in there, come on. >> and what we're trying to do is get him convicted and shown

throughout over 300 people have been tried and convicted either on domestic or international terrorists, but that's the crux of it. whereas in the military tribunal or the military court in 2006, united states supreme court found them unconstitutional to try gitmo, but in 2009 they correct it had so the appeals process is going to be even more drawn out than they were, if they were in federal court. aren't you concerned we want a speedy and swift and that our justice department can't take care of these criminals. >> i'd like a speedy trial, and a speedy disposition as a result of the trial, but part of what i'm concerned about is bringing, let's say khalid shaikh mohammed to new york city. this city has enough really vulnerability without bringing him here and i think that the military. >> i understand that. >> tribunal can be a way to do that. move to another topic. a lot of democrats jumping off what might be a sinking ship, the way you look at it? >> well, actually i think there's more republicans announcing their retirement than

there are democrats. >> retired and that's the different. >> the question for you though is, yes, there is mid terms always show that we use this party in power for the white house is one that does offer some losses, but i also want to talk to you a little about the array of where they are with the republican party in that, you know, as governor and when you ran for president you reached across both sides of the aisle, you worked with your democratic legislature to get things passed. you also went and got two union endorsements when you ran for president, but now you have a kind of a purity amongst cloak for growth folks and tea party that are asking the republican parties to get here to these purity-- how do you feel, does that dip into your own party politics. >> i'm excited about the tea parties they're holding everybody's feet to the fire, republicans and democrats, that's a good thing. when i see the pressure put on members of congress i'm excite abouted that, but not a pressure--

>> and a lesser candidates like the new york state, congressional race. >> what i want to see them say, we are watching what you do and with when you spend money we don't have and borrowing money we can't afford to pay back we're going to hold you responsible and get you out of office. >> but going back to what democrats are facing, i think the biggest trafficty in-- travesty of governor ritter in colorado, democrats made inroads in the midwest and even with the convention democrats are making their views known, a lot of green issues water conservation things like that are pro democrat positions and i think that's going to be a loss that's going to be felt. >> he think aur right quite frankly, that was the surprise to me. chris dodd's departure wasn't a big surprise, dorgan not-- number one what did dorgan and dodd get for their departure. now you and i know how the game is played. democrat or republican a guy goes out, he didn't say i'll do

this for an altruistic reason. the same thing with republicans, ask them who promised you what and make them say they didn't because somebody got a promise. penny, thank you very much. and zahra great to have you and do it again. the hot seat is warm and we need a hot seat in new york, it's cold up here. how do we make americans safe when they get on an airplane? how do we rebuild their confidence? coming up we'll ask the former director of the security of the world's most secure airline. we are going to find out how the israelis did it and how maybe we ought to be doing it as well. ] the deeper you clean, the cleaner you feel. olay deep cleansers go beyond what the eye can see. they remove 2 times more dirt and make-up than basic cleansing. for a deep clean feeling,

on thursy >> on thursday in response to the attempted christmas kay airline becoming president obama said that they had the information and failed to connect the dot and allowed umar farouk abdulmutallab, an al-qaeda trained terrorist to board a detroit-bound plane armed with explosives. >> i'm ordering an immediate effort to strengthen the criteria used to add individuals to our terrorist watch list, especially the no-fly list. we must do better in keeping dangerous people off airplanes while still facilitating the aircraft. >> one airline that does an excellent job at keeping dangerous people off the planes is el al. i've known numerous times, recently in august many' going to be on an el al flight when i go back to israel for the 13th

final. joining us is the former security for el al isaac, great to have you with us today. my first question. would this guy umar farouk abdulmutallab gotten on an el al plane. >> no. why not. >> we interview every passenger, if the man comes and we know that he was one way ticket, he'd pay $3,000 cash, he came without luggage, he is giving me all the suspicious signs to tell me, hey, hold me. >> mike: what's different, apparently the israelis have a different view than americans do. i would call it the israeli psyche or mindset different from the united states? >> number one, we hire only qualified people. well educated people. we train them very well. we cannot train them in this

country until september 11th, 12 hours training and you become an expert. this spt in our dream we could be accepted. then we have on the job training for weeks and then we test them nonstop. anyone fails, go home, thank you very much. you're dealing with life and not with business. money you can replace, life you cannot replace. >> mike: there's something behind that isaac, appears that the israelis view the threat as something so severe, you know people are out to get you. the old statement is, it's not paranoia if they're really out to get you. you guys know the terrorists want to kill you. do americans not get that. do we not fully comprehend that? >> i think we do comprehend it. we don't want to do the right steps to be able to be proactive and stop being reactive. look what happened since

december 1988 pan-american over lockerby, people lost their life. why? we learned nothing from this. september 11th, 3,000 people lost their life. what we learned nothing. richard reid, shoe bomber, 2002, he hides the bomb in his shoes. what we learn from this, tell all american passengers. >> mike: take off their shoes. >> right. this is a patch we do not a security. excuse me and the last one nigerian one. >> mike: yeah. >> he hides explosives in his underwear, the solution, now everyone who wants to fly we want to see them naked and what tomorrow we do, somebody will make a problem in the flight, and now the third patch to tie the passengers to the seat? no one will be allowed to move even to the restroom until the aircraft will land and the pilot will turn off the engine.

if that happens there will be a lot more cleaning up of the airplanes than there is now. yeah, because they will-- each passenger will get a-- >> isaac we've got to continue in a minute. coming up more with isaac, but don't go away, we'll talk about what can keep us safer in the air and on the ground here in america. ed the presentation! judy, great job on the printing!

>> i hope you're enjoying the huckabee report on over 500 radio stations and by the way, there's commentary three times daily monday through station and if you want to find a station near you, go to the huckabee report and past xhem tris. the former security director for el-al airlines, when we talked before we talked about how the

guy got on the plane in the first place, i want back to september 11th, we've got a clip from the movie united 93 just to remind us of that day and what ended up becoming america's worst day in our lifetimes. can i get something for you? >> oh! >> shh, shh. >> stay calm. >> mike: now the dramatic depiction of what we've just seen of unfortunately a tragic incident involving some brave americans who ended up taking that plane down rather than allowing it to fly into the capital of the white house, he will-al would have had a different approach from the time

the person bought a ticket and there are several procedures. it wouldn't have gotten that far, would it? >> no, never. the simple system once you buy the ticket we get information about you. >> from the ticket purchase. >> yes, we train the ticket people if you behave not normal, if you buy one way ticket, if you buy the last moment ticket. if you buy cash, i want to know this. and immediately we get information. then we train the reservation department, i want to know how many times you've changed the date of your flight. why you did it. i want to know. maybe you don't want to-- i say you're a terrorists, i want to know. >> mike: those are red flags for you. >> terminal security, you don't drive up to the terminal at the bengorian airport. that i know. >> the moment you come, you are suspicious we know about it you. >> before you get there. >> exactly. then let us wait for you and i will not let you surprise us.

that's number one. number two, most of the passengers are honest, the problem is how i train my people to know how to sort the passengers and understand on the flight, i'm staying on the ground. call for an opportunity to help me secure your flight and to make sure that you're secure to the destination. >> mike: the next step is when you check in, you carefully look at the person's passport. what are you looking for? what is in the check in the interview process when you're looking at the passport. >> from our experience when people came with the fake passport. sometimes you see they forgot, they put the picture him or her, but you see the age is different, you want 25, 30 years old. the passport belongs to somebody 50, 60 years old, they forgot. number two, i want to see which countries you visited. we know that abdulmutallab was

in yemen twice. he had in his passport the visas. who checked the visa, i want to know and to ask him what you did in yemen. >> mike: so it's not just who he is, you know, i brought my passport. if you looked at my passport, would you worry about me a little bit? would you ask me some tough questions. >> sure, sure, immediately. immediately. >> mike: i knew it, i knew it dog gone it, i knew he would check me out. >> you are carrying passports, what you did in pakistan? we know pakistan, we know where al-qaeda, and we know how they love the country, the al-qaeda. >> mike: yeah. >> i want to know what you did there. if you can convince me and you tell me what you did, and i can-- >> yeah, that was no small issue last time to have that stamp in the passport. i did go to pakistan with the u.s. government and there to gift troops when i was governor and one thing we did was look at

relief work after the terrible earthquakes in pakistan, but i had to go through that and answer those questions because of some places where i have traveled. >> this will not be enough. the u.s. embassy. >> mike: what you're looking for not just the documentation, one of the things i've said. i want you to tell me if i'm right. that we've focused in this country not on a system where we train people to think about the people, but we train people in procedures, processes and paper work and so as long as they have the right sized plastic bag and then we think that they're okay. that's not good enough for israeli security. >> not at all, not at all. i want to make sure when i talk to you, and ask the questions and you understand why i'm doing it, if you're honest, you love to cooperate with me. if you are dishonest or you want to hide something from me, i will see it in your face immediately. why? we have trained our people that the changes will be seen in somebody who is lying for us and then, we can--

>> did you go to congress and check out some of the people talking there? i think it might be-- >> i went three times. [applause] >> isaac, we've got to take a break, i want to mention before we go to the break some other things i know at that el al does that we ought to be doing, air marshals on every flight. you screen the luggage, thoroughly not just an x-ray machine, you check it out and the airplane structure is such that it's protected. there are so many steps and i wish we had even more time to talk about it, but coming up, a new york post reporter is going to test the metal detector at one of the country's largest and busiest airports with disturbing results. that's next. stay with us. country western ♪ singer: we were stuck in a basement apartment ♪

>> from america's news headquarters, hello i'm julie banderas. the calls growing for majority leader harry reid to step down. racial comments made by reid about president obama come to go light in a new book. and michael steele among those wanting reid to resign. steele comparing the situation to one that led republican trent lott to step down as senate majority leader in 2002. power now restored to thousands left in the dark by a major earthquake in northern california, that according to a utility company spokesman. the 6.5 magnitude earthquake struck off shore north of san

francisco on saturday. damaged buildings and downed power lines, another chance after small trembler over the next week. i'm julie banderas. now back to huckabee. [applaus [applause] >> we're back with isaac, the former security director for el-al. and i want to bring in lorena from the new york post. this week they reported on a woman with a titanium hip implant that went through undetected. she says it's not the first time she's walked through the screeners without the alarm going off. so the post sent lorena to investigate. you went to see could you get through. what did you take with you to test the system. i went ahead and purchased this titanium bracelet. i went through two times. the first attempt i put it in my pocket and lo and behold no one

noticed and second time i made no attempt to conceal it and put it on my ris and again, i walked through and no one noticed. >> so. >> the alarm. >> no problem, nobody said let's take a look at that bracelet. >> yeah. >> you got on. >> the alarms didn't go off or anything. >> now, there have been reports and this lady from california, this is where you got the idea for the story, had gone through and she has a taye tine yum hip replacement. if we haven't already shown it show you the titanium. there it is, a good size. a nice picture to put on the screen you can see the titanium hip, but it didn't set the alarm off. she was concerned enough and she approached the agents and said, i think i should have set the alarms off. both times she was assured that these machines are working right and the second time, the tsa agent e-mailed her and said rest assured they're working and functioning. >> mike: let me do something-- i want to defend the tsa

personnel at that level. i deal with them all the time almost every day. one of the problems i find is they're doing what they're told to do. i don't blame them 'cause they do the procedures and processes they've been trained and told. isaac, am i fair in saying that you can't blame those guys, but way up the line there's somebody in strategic planning in counterterrorism that is not doing what you guys do in saying here is how we ought to be approaching it, is that a fair assessment. >> i blame first the system. this is the bad system that we have in this country and we never want to learn. >> mike: is it because we try to make everybody go through all the layers because we're afraid to offend somebody? >> we're going like a robot. what happened happened. if you not-- if you not stop every passenger to learn about his background first if you can and then to interview to ask simple questions, why we at el al could

stop irish woman, pregnant at heathrow airport in london, she knew nothing that could-- she air i package for family of the boyfriend. >> the boyfriend put some stuff in the luggage. >> he packed everything and offered her a ticket to israel she had real passport. the luggage went through the x-ray machine and when she came to my guys, they came to the conclusion something wrong with the woman. and when they opened the luggage. explosives, and sent with her to el al. >> mike: she was not islamic, she was irish. it goes back to the point, isaac, you're dealing with people, not processes. your folks are focused on what these folks are about, how they can answer the questions and the signs they're giving off, not do they have big shoes or little shoes and are they going

barefoot through there. and again, i go back, it's our processes that seem to be the problem. and lorena, i want to ask you, did it bother you, give you a sense of unease that you were able to glide through this check point pretty simply? >> yeah, it was definitely alarming. if i'm able to bring a titanium bracelet, what's to stop someone with a gun or a knife? >> she's giving the question and answer. so, we have to stop relying on technology. >> mike: now, you have offered to assist the united states government, auf been to congress to testify and written letters to members of congress and said i will be of help. >> yes. >> mike: have they ever said yes, we need you and want to implement the procedures. >> i tsa, secretary of homeland security. i told what's going on in this country and we have over 400 airports in this country. i said let's take one airport and to try to build it exactly like el al system and let's see

if we can do it, yes or no. i have no doubt in my mind that we can do it, but i want to prove if i can do it or not. they isn't me very nice letter that the bottom line, they didn't try-- go to hell. >> mike: they didn't tell you that. >> no, they were very nice not to tell me this. it was a shame. three times i'm testifying in congress, once after pan-america over lockerbie, twice after september 11th, i asked them what they want me to write, what's going on what i think should be done and they agreed with me. the results, maybe you, governor, can tell me. >> mike: no, i can't. i wish i could, i'm on planes every day and i sometimes wonder, but again, i say-- i hold responsible not the for example working at the airports, but the people at the top who ought to be understanding that the american people deserve and expect for there to be a real sense of system put into mace and we don't have a system. we have procedures. we need a system and i thank

very much isaac and marina, thank you very much for coming and i hope we'll start-- >> this is 71%, 71% of american people in favor of system-- >> i think that's an important point. a recent poll did show 71% would like to have everybody profiled and profiling doesn't necessarily mean you're shaken down for your ethnicity or your religious background, it just means that everybody is carefully examined and questioned to find out whether or not you ought to be flying on an airplane with me and some of you, you shouldn't. it has nothing to do with terrorism. you're just obnoxious. all right, well, friday unemployment numbers took an unexpected turn for the worse. more americans out of work. times are tough and the latest numbers suggest that the labor market not going to get any better soon. so, coming up we're going to be joined by some folks who lost their jobs, but not their creativity and their will to work. we'll be right back. ísúúú

>> 85,000 americans lost their jobs in december and the nation's unemployment rate is still at 10% according to the latest report released by the labor department on friday. now, if you're having trouble find ago job what should you do? well, some folks like our next guests have given up trying to do what they once did and are taking a stab at new careers, jeffrey caper used to test video games for microsoft and fred is a former insurance executive.

both are here with us today and jeffrey, fred and fred's wife sally with us today (applause) >> let me start, jeffrey, you worked at microsoft and did testing of products like xbox and all of that cool stuff. >> yeah. >> mike: there was something you were doing on the side. what was that? >> i was a professional voiceover artist, did commercials and narration, but my niche was audio books. >> mike: when people write books they have people narrate the books and sometimes the author, i've done my mine and seems they don't want to and they hire you to read the book to and from work. >> nay rating your own book is a good thing, but a lot of authors want professionals to do it somebody with acting ability. >> mike: are you saying i'm not professional. >> no, i listened to your samples, but a lot of authors don't have the time or the inclination to do that it's

actually hard work reading an entire book and editing it and processing it and doing the work that's involved. >> mike: when you got laid off at microsoft you decided hey, look, i am a dog this part-time and make a full-time gig out of it and taking care of the family. >> it is indeed, yes, yes. >> mike: fred, you aen sally had a different story, i mean, you had a six-figure salary, downsizing, layoff and you had home months looking for work. >> i spent the first six months sending out approximately 400 resume'. how much did you hear from. >> one telephone interview. >> 400 resume's, i changed to fit the job. >> mike: and that's emotional discouraging. >> discouraging, three daughters, three weddings, college, i had rising debt and finally made the decision to go on my own.

>> what did you do, what did you find that you and salary said, well, we can make a go of this? >> believe it or not, we went through what's called a franchise broker and what they do, they interview you and find out your likes and dislikes and this particular broker came up with five recommended franchises that he thought would be a good fit for sally and i. believe it or not one of the franchises duty calls. >> mike: duty calls. >> doodycalls. >> mike: as in dog, dog doody, right, okay, they all do it. >> a niche business, they all do it, not going to be engineered away. always going to be there and people don't like to pick it up. >> mike: that's right, they don't. >> they love the dog don't-- >> this is a business you contract with i guess individuals in their yards or apartment complexes and then you guys go in and you pick up the dog poop. >> we have uniformed people and they have an identifiable truck that's lime green with a big

doody dog on the side and dust pans and spray the tools off when they're done and make sure they're sanitary to prevent dog viruses being passed between people and other pets and other yards. >> mike: you're making a go of this. >> having a great time with it and it's very profitable. and the dog business and the pet business in general has actually increased revenues even in the last year during the recession. >> mike: you know if you're knee deep in poop you should consider a job in politics, a whole lot like it. >> well, we always say we're number one in the number two business (laughter) . >> mike: what i find fascinating both of you, you didn't wait for the jobs to come to you, you came to the conclusion that wasn't going to happen and you started looking for the jobs first by finding something you were willing to do and you thought you could do. was that sort of the key, jeffrey in your case? >> well, it was for me. certainly, this audio book narration spent to me naturally,

i spent 20 years in the theater and doing the narration was second nature to me. the other side of the business that's the challenge. it's the marketing and the customer service and the public relations, all the other stuff that goes along with the business. >> mike: you may not be making as much money as can you with microsoft, i'm assuming you probably had some pay cut, but are you having more fun being in essence in control of your future? >> oh, absolutely. you know, i get to-- i work at home. >> mike: yeah. >> so i get to wake up with my kids, i get to send them off to school i'm there when the bus comes and drops them off. i never miss dinner, get to have lunch with my lovely wife sarah, i get to do-- i never miss soccer games or ballet. i get to do the family things you can't put a price tag on. >> mike: fred, you and sally obviously took a huge pay cut to start the business, but as posed to working for a company that sets your salary you have unlimited potential if this things takes off and as long as

dogs continue to do what dogs do it looks like a market out there. >> yeah, we look at this as an opportunity rather than a negative. we always believe that you know, god closes one door and opens another and we saw it as a challenge, sally was very supportive and i think we have a great opportunity to not only build this company for ourselves, but possibly for our children. so we're looking at it as a typical american opportunity to take the bull by the horns and go with it. >> mike: or take the dog by the ears or whatever. >> exactly, dog by the ears. >> mike: and sally, obviously, eighths big career change, but you guys are spending more time together. >> we are. we clean up yards together which is fun to do, but i did enjoy it, it's nice and it gives fred and i a common goal, something to work for instead of our separate ways in the morning and him to his job and i go to my job. this gives us something that we can work on together and it's a nice feeling to have. >> mike: sally, fred, jeffrey, thank you very much for being

here and telling us your stories. you know, it's always fascinating to learn that when life deals awe big bucket of lemons maybe you can make lemonade. exactly what they've done. i know a lot of people are out of work and hurting, what i hope you realize don't wait for someone to come to you, maybe you sit down and think creatively what you want to do and like to do. all the money in the world isn't worth it if you don't like what you do. it's better to make less money and love your job than more main and hate it when you wake up. i've made a miserable who made a whole bunch of money. the key, finding something you like to to. thanks so much to these guys for being with us today. coming up, the little rockers are going to join me in paying homage to elvis presley on this weekend of his 75th birthday. we'll be right back.
